So, should doctors be forced to perform abortions? Or nurses be forced to assist in them? I'm sure thier are plenty of other examples of things you would not do if your employer demanded.

If such procedures are part of their job and they refuse to perform them, the employer should have every right to fire them.

Now the country's two largest Drug Stores (Walgreens and CVS) both have policies allowing for pharmacists to opt out of dispensing a drug that violates their conscience. Now is it OK under those circumstances? Or do wish to defend your orignial statement that "A pharmacist shouldn't be allowed to refuse to fill orders any more than a soldier should be allowed to refuse to go to war."?

So should a HMO be able to dictate what type of procedure that a physician MUST perform? Should a patient be able to sue if their primary care physician will not perfor an abortion or prescribe them RU-486?
